Normal speech around -18 to -12 dBFS, with peaks generally -6 to -3 dBFS.\nDialogue consistency: clip-gain first, then light compression. Avoid obvious pumping.\nMusic under dialogue: typically -30 to -20 dBFS depending on density. Duck it enough that every word is effortless to understand.\nMusic without dialogue: can rise to roughly -18 to -10 dBFS.\nAmbience/room tone: roughly -35 to -24 dBFS. Never leave unnatural dead silence between edits.\nBackground Foley: usually -30 to -18 dBFS.\nImportant Foley/SFX: roughly -18 to -8 dBFS.\nMajor cinematic impacts, gunshots, explosions, transitions: may peak around -6 to -2 dBFS, but never clip.\nMaster: never exceed -1 dBTP true peak.\nFor a web/YouTube delivery, aim around -14 to -16 LUFS integrated while preserving cinematic dynamics.\n\nSound-design rules:\n\nDialogue > story-critical SFX > music > ambience.\nUse EQ to remove rumble/mud; don't make voices unnaturally thin.\nUse subtle compression, automation, fades, crossfades, room tone, reverb and perspective.\nSounds farther from camera should be quieter, darker and wetter; close sounds should be clearer and more present.\nLayer impacts with transient + body + low-end/tail when appropriate.\nBuild sound around cuts, movements, reveals and transitions.\nDo not make everything equally loud.\nPreserve quiet moments so loud moments actually feel loud.\nAvoid clipping, harsh limiting, pumping, abrupt ambience changes or obvious audio cuts.\nContinuously A/B the entire scene and make level decisions in context, not clip-by-clip.\n\nGo through the complete timeline, identify every audio element, organize it logically, then perform the actual mix in Premiere. The final result should feel polished, immersive, controlled and cinematic rather than like individually normalized clips.","author":{"name":"beech","username":"beechinour","avatarUrl":"https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1939776625538711553/3fE5abyC_200x200.jpg"},"createdAt":"Mon Sep 07 18:58:19 +0000 2026","engagement":{"replies":18,"retweets":63,"likes":1047,"views":100135},"media":{"photos":[{"url":"https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HRorfy6bgAA1qcr.jpg?name=orig","width":1736,"height":1716},{"url":"https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HRorliEbAAAHlyr.jpg?name=orig","width":1156,"height":1052}],"videos":[]},"adhxContext":{"savedByCount":1,"publicTags":[],"previewUrl":"https://adhx.com/beechinour/status/2097036762283458575"}}
